Definitions
- the present invention relates to electrical semiconductor devices, preferably to high-power rectifiers comprising semiconductive bodies of silicon, germanium or intermetallic compounds.
- rectifiers there also belong e.g. the so-called diffused rectifiers, with respect to which the application of the invention bears some special advantages.
- diffused rectifiers there is in particular concerned the manufacture of a suitable electrode system comprising a semiconductor body.
- the manufacture of diffused rectifiers is carried out e.g. in the conventional manner with the aid of plateshaped semiconductor material which at first, for producing the desired type of conductivity, is subjected to a diffusion process, is then provided with a nickel coating and is cut into small square-shaped plates of a given ,size, to which the electrical lead-in wires are connected 'by soldering.
- a suitable material for the connections there is used copper, and for the soldering there may serve previously shaped little plates of a lead-tin or leadsilver alloy comprising a solution of zinc-ammoniumchloride as a fiuxing material.
- the contacted rectifier is frequently subjected to an etching process and is then built into a housing for preventing any mechanical damages and atmospheric influences.
- the invention consists in that in a semiconductor device, in particular a rectifier for high power comprising a semiconductor body of silicon, germanium or an intermetallic compound, at least one of the connecting leads consists of an electrieally well-conductive flexible stranded wire and, at least at one end, has a substantially massive enlargement ending in a surface, which is e.g. as plane as possible, lying transversely in relation to the longitudinal axis of the stranded wire, and which is adapted to the shape of the connecting surface of the semiconductor, and to which plane surface the connecting lead is mounted to the semiconducting body by means of a suitable solder.
- a semiconductor device in particular a rectifier for high power comprising a semiconductor body of silicon, germanium or an intermetallic compound
- at least one of the connecting leads consists of an electrieally well-conductive flexible stranded wire and, at least at one end, has a substantially massive enlargement ending in a surface, which is e.g. as plane as possible, lying transversely in
- Such a type of embodiment of a connecting lead is capable of meeting the requirement of avoiding the creation of mechanical stresses at the semiconducting body during the operation; because the flexibility of the connecting lead also remains to exist after the soldering, since the massively enlarged portion prevents the production of a capillary effect that would otherwise permit the solder to rise in the stranded wire, which would lead to a stiffening of the connection.
- the practical application of the invention still bears the added advantage of enabling the production of an unobjectionable and reliable safe contacting of the semiconductive body by means of the wide and plane connecting surface of the lead-in. For the same reason there will also be obtained a good dissi pation of heat from the semiconducting body, so that in this way there will be obtained a semiconductor device which is particularly reliable in operation, especially also at high powers.
- the connecting element according to the invention is manufactured in that itself is deformed at one end to the shape of an enlargement comprising the desired characteristics or properties.
- an electrically well-conductive flexible type of stranded wire is clamped into a gauge, i.e. in such a way that the one end somewhat projects and which is then, either with the air of e.g. a welding burner or in the course of a butt-welding, is melted to form an enlargement, and/or is pressed or squeezed to the desired shape.
- a gauge i.e. in such a way that the one end somewhat projects and which is then, either with the air of e.g. a welding burner or in the course of a butt-welding, is melted to form an enlargement, and/or is pressed or squeezed to the desired shape.
- the enlarged end of the stranded wire will be grounded oif in a plane manner.
- One particular embodiment of the invention consists in that the projecting end of the stranded wire is melted to the shape of a pearl, is then squeezed to a fiat shape and is then smoothed on the surface.
- This manufacturing method is particularly simple and inexpensive, and there are only required few technical means.
- the enlarged end is given the shape of a pyramid or of a cone.
- the connecting lead is continuously enlarged toward the end, which bears particular advantages with respect to subsequently etched semiconductor devices.
- connecting elements can be manufactured in as few as possible working processes.
- the connecting leads may now be soldered directly to the semiconducting body in accordance with the conventional methods.
- it is of advantage to provide them with electrically well-conductive coatings prior to attaching them to the semiconducting body.
- Such a measure may be of importance for producing a good contacting of the semiconducting body.
- semiconductor devices' which,
- the connecting lead is provided with one or more electrically well-conductive coatings, i.e. the outermost one of the coatings has to be of such kind that it, during. the etching of the semiconductor device, does not dissolve in the employed etching liquid.
- the outermost one of the coatings may consist of a suitable noble or rare metal. If, as a material for the connecting lead, there is used e.g. a stranded copper wire, then this coating will appropriately have to consist of gold. During the etching of the contacted semiconductor, e.g. in a mixture of hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid, this coating of gold will protect the stranded copper wire against any chemical attacks.
- Another feature of the invention may be seen in the fact of designing the connecting lead in such a way that its enlarged end surface will completely cover-up the connecting sunface of the semiconductor body during the contacting. In this way there may be achieved a particularly advantageous cooling effect which, especially in the case of e.g. high-power rectifiers, is of a great importance.
- This measure is also of a special interest to semiconductor devices that are subsequently subjected to an etching process.
- the semiconducting body is plated on its connecting sides, among others for enlarging the current cross-section.
- the non-covered portions may be etched away.
- the cross-section useful for the current conductance will be reduced, of course.
- FIGS. 1 through 3 there is shown in a side view the individual manufacturing stages for producing a connecting element according to the invention, i.e. in this case there is shown the manufacturing of the enlargement at its end.
- FIG. 4 is the cross-sectional view of a connecting lead manufactured in accordance with this method, and which is metal-coated for the above-mentioned purposes.
- FIG. 5 partly in a side view and partly in a top view, there are shown some further types of embodiment of a connecting lead according to the invention.
- FIG. 6 schematically shows the cross-sectional view of a p-n type rectifier provided with the connections, and in FIG. 7 there is shown an inventive type of rectifier arrangement which is ready to operate.
- the reference numeral 1 denotes the connecting lead which e.g. consists of a stranded copper wire. According to FIG. 1 this is clamped into a gauge 2, i.e. in such a way that at least the one end projects a small amount.
- This projecting portion 1a is melted e.g. with the aid of a welding burner, to the shape of a pearl 1b, as is shown in FIG. 2.
- this pearl is pressed or squeezed to form the fiat enlargement 1c and the enlarged top surface 1d is planed, i.e. subjected to a surface grinding. This is shown in FIG. 3 of the drawings.
- the thus resulting connecting element may now be firmly soldered directly to the semi-conducting body.
- the connecting lead is supposed to be protected from chemical attacks the; thus previously treated stranded copper wire will be metallically coated.
- a corresponding, suitable embodiment is shown in FIG. 4.
- the stranded copper wire 1 is provided with a silver or nickel coating 3 and will then be provided with a coating of gold 4.
- the enlarged end will then still be provided with a coating of lead 5, for the purpose of being soldered to the semiconducting body.
- FIG. 5 there is shown in a side view a connecting lead, consisting of a flexible stranded wire 1, with a portion 6 that is enlarged to the shape of a pyramid or cone.
- FIGS. 5b and 50 these embodiments are shown in a top view as seen from the connecting lead.
- These shapes are characterized in that the stranded wire is continuously enlarge toward the end.
- Such types of embodiments are of a particular interest to semiconductor devices which are subjected to a subsequent etching process.
- the length 11 of the enlargement 6 is then supposed to amount to at least 2 mm.
- the shape of the enlarged end surface 7 will depend in particular upon the shape or shaping of the semiconducting body.
- this body as is the case for instance with diffused rectifiers, consists of a little square plate, then there will appropriately be chosen also an end surface that is enlarged to a square shape, if possible of same size as the connected surface of the semiconducting body. In any case, however, it is of importance that the enlargement terminates in a surface lying transversely in relation to the longitudinal axis of the stranded wire.
- a metal support or base plate 12 at the same time serving as electrode, and to which the semiconducting body 13 is deposited in accordance with one of the conventional methods.
- the semiconducting body 13 is provided with a metal coating 14 to which the electrode lead-in 15 is soldered with the enlarged end 16.
- the semiconductor is encased by a housing 17 through which the electrode lead-in 15 is led in an insulated manner.
- the electrode lead-in as a flexible stranded wire there will be avoided any mechanical stresses at the rectifier during the operation of the rectifier arrangement or device, which are otherwise due to the heating of the rectifier and the thus existing considerable heat inside the housing, because the stranded connecting wire, neither at an expansion of the rectifier, nor at an expansion of the housing, Will be lifted off the semiconducting body, or respectively can exert a pressure upon the latter. Furthermore, on account of the strongly enlarged end of the connecting lead there will result a good dissipation of heat from the rectifier and, at all forthcoming temperatures, there will be obtained a vastly reliable operating rectifier device.
- the invention is not limited to the given examples of embodiment, but that it also extends to similar other types of embodiment.
- the invention may also be applied to high-power rectifiers, e.g. to the so-called diffused and alloyed rectifiers, as well as to such ones employing drawn p-n layers.
